TrendForce reported earlier this week that Apple is cutting back production of the Apple iPhone 14 Plus. While it is increasing the output of the more expensive iPhone 14 Pro due to lukewarm demand, according to the market research firm.
However, the share of the more expensive Pro series has increased to 60 per cent of the total output. This increase is from the initially planned 50 per cent. Further, it could increase to 65 per cent in the future, as per the report.
Also, another report of this month suggests that the company is also chopping off production of Apple iPhone 14 Plus within weeks of starting shipments. This step has taken place as Apple re-evaluates demand for the mid-range model. This information reports, citing two people involved in the company’s supply chain.
